Action folds after
budget proposal is
killed by Senate
By DON WOODRUM
Cardinal News Editor
What once was is no more.
The University Action, a Stu­dent
Government Association
publication, will not live to see its
second year because of budget
cuts, SGA president Frank Jem­ley
said.
"The Student Senate decided
not to fund the Action this year, al­though
we (SGA) recommended it
be funded," he said. "Basically,
the senate decided there were
other more important priorities."
Those priorities included
$15,000 for the new speaker
series, $12,500 for a minority fund
and $15,000 for the Senate project
fund, which is a $9,000 increase
over last year. Jemley said there­quested
increase was to be used
for tuition remission for the editor
and a stipend for three or four staff
positions. Last year four staff posi­tions
were paid if there was any
money left over from advertising
revenues. ·• . .. We tried to fly with a
certain percentage of advertising
and we (SGA) picked up the rest,"
Jemley said.
University Action editor for the
fall semester last year and present
Louisville Cardinal editor, Larry
D. Croom. said he thought it was a
good idea not to continue the pub-
1:-:ation. "The second semester
the paper lacked a lot of journalis­tic
quality. It's better not to pub­lish
anything if it's not quality."
Terry Stanley, managing editor
under Croom at the Action and
now at The Cardinal, said she was
not surprised the paper folded.
"I'm not surprised the Senate
didn't fund it because I don't think
it had any honest backing from
SGA, she said. "If SGA had really
wanted to continue publishing this
year, they could have gotten it by
the Senate. I knew it wouldn't
last."
Jemley said he did not think the
quality of the paper was anything
more than marginal. "It was
brand new and it had a lot of ex­traneous
problems. The setup
was always clear, and it was tough
publishing something every two
weeks and expecting people to
rely on it as news source."
What to publish was a major.

All faiths

ByKKISSIE KRUER
Cardinal Correspondent
Every Thursday afternoon, stu­dents
of all faiths gather at the
Baptist Campus Center for an
"Un-Sundae" ice cream social. On
Fridays, the Center offers a free
lunch and a luncheon speaker.
The speaker might be Univer­sity
of Louisville basketball coach
Denny Crum, or it might be a local
Southern Baptist minister. On
Wednesdays, early risers can at­tend
a 7:30 a .m. "Sonrise" wor­ship
service, while late sleepers
might catch "Breakfast at the 'B"'
beginning at 9 a.m.
The name of the red brick build­ing
north of the Ecumemca l Cen­ter,
Baptist Campus Ce nte r , be­lies
the two-fold philosophy of the
group within. It does, 111f co urse,
house the Baptist Stude nt Union,
a student organization which
ministers to the re ligious need s of
the University's Christia n po p ula­tion,
in particular, those of the
Southern Ba ptist d enomination.
A 15-member council headed by
Rev. Tom Smoot, campus minis­ter,
organizes weekly Bible
studies and worship services, in
addition to occasional mini-re ­treats.
A Baptist Student Union
choir performs at local church ser ­vices,
and many BSU members
work as summer missionaries a t
churches thr·oughoutthe country.
The fact that the Baptist Cam­pus
Center is physically indepen­dent
of the Ecumenical Cente r·
does not mean that the BSU is any
less ecumenical in philosophy.
Students of all religions are wel­come

The objects of attention inside
are various tables set up in the
lobby displaying goods for sale,
subscriptions to buy, politicians to
vote for, and the like. Outside,
there are Bibles to take and peti­tions
to sign.
Although these two areas are
separated by only a short physical
distance, the rules governing
them are distinctly different.
The person must first secure
sponsorship from a recognized
student organization, then
negotiate terms of compensation
for the group, and finally, notify
Dr. Harold Adams, assistant vice
president for student life, of the
activity.
"If a student group wants to
sponsor someone, that's okay,"
said Adams. "But this group must
be responsible for whatever hap­pens."
Library imPlements overdue policies
Any person who is not affiliated
with the University of Louisville
must go through several proce­dures
in order to set up a table in
any campus building.
If people want to stand outside
the buildings , no permission is re­quired.
"Because we are a slate sup­ported
university, people like
ministers, evangelists can come
on campus and speak or give out
pamphlets," said Dr. Edward H.
Hammond, vice president for stu­dent
affairs.
"The First Amendment protects
their right to sp~ak, " said Ham­mond.
Hammond explained that as
,long as the people do not "block
entrances or exits, or restrict the
facility's purpose," they can sta­tion
themselves around campus
buildings.
"If students complain that there
is an infringement, we will talk to
the person," he said.
Hammond said that his office
has received no complaints from
students this semeste r.
''If students do not want to take
the material (being handed out),
they don't have to."
The process is much more de ­tailed
for anyone who wishes to
Adams specified that sales­people
cannot sell items that
would conflict with University
business (for example, a person
could not sell T-shirts similar to
ones in the campus bookstore.)
Several abuses in this system
have occured over the years.
Adams explained that in order
to gain sponsor ship from a student
group, a person says he will sell a
certain thing and then he sells
another.
Most student groups sponsor a
person who, in turn, agrees to give
the group a certain percentage of
the profits. This is where the sec­ond
type of abuse can occur.
"Sometimes the person may not
tell how much money he made
and try to cheat the student group
out of its profit," Adams said. For
example, the person may report
tha t he sold only a small amount of
goods when he actually sold a con­siderable
amount."
In either case, the group ordi­narily
requests to withdraw its
sponsorship and the offending
pe rson is asked to leave campus.
"It is up to the student group to
check a person out before it spon­sors
him," said Adams. "Because
if anything goes wrong, I will go to
the student group."

The circulation computer at the
William F . Ekstrom Library is fi­nally!
working. However, it will
cost the University of Louisville an
estimated $2,500 per month, ac­cording
to a written release from
University Librarian MarthaAlex-ander
Bowman.
According to Bowman, the
DataPhase computer acquired in
1982 for the circulation depart­ment
and other future use was
jointly purchased by the Ken­tucky
Department for Libraries
and Archives and the University.
The KDLA has recently decided
that it will no longer participate,
since it has been unable to utilize
the system as originally planne d .
The University is assuming the
complete maintenance cost, a p­proximately
$2,500 a month.
The DataPhase syste m is used
by many libraries across the coun­try.
"The software package which
comprises this library system
(ALIS II) will be completed in the
near future. Updates and changes
will be continually released to en­hance
and improve its function­ing,"
said Bowman.
Although the DataPhase system
has the capacity for serial, catalog­ing

Louisville's potential attracts
Taylor to Business School job
By TIM KELLY
Cardinal Staff Writer
Bob Taylor has been the dean of
the School of Business for only
one month but it looks like he is
going to fit right in.
Over forty dean's positions be ­came
available nationwide, last
year, but Taylor said that the Uni­versity
of Louisville job was the
best fCir him. "Both Louisville and
U of L have characteristics of a
small town and university, yP.t
they are located in an area of great
potential,'' said Taylor
Certainly one of the features at
U ofL which attracted Taylor's at­tention
is the new School of Busi­ness
building. It appears the
building will be completed on
schedule in January, 1985. "I'm
really excited because we will
have the stude nts, faculty, and
staff in the same building," he
said. As it stands now, the offices
are in Strickler Hall and the class­rooms
are in Davidson Hall.
Taylor became interested in
business almost immediately after
high school. First he joined the
military. The Air Force paid for
his education at Allegheny Col­lege
in Pittsburgh, Pa., where he
majored in American studies.
From there, he travelled to Ohio
State University and earned his
masters in business administra­tion.
He furthered his studies at
Indiana University and taught a
business course while still in the
Air Force.
After getting his doctorate from
Indiana University in manage­ment
and administrative studies,
Taylor became the head of the
business and economics program
at the University of Wisconsin at
Stevens Point. When the position
of Dean of the U of L School of
Business became available he
jumped at 'the chance. "I think U
of L has a great opportunity for
building a nationally recognized
business program in Louisville,"
he said. "The future of our coun­try
is in the cities. Therefore, the
urban university offers the best
situation."
Born and bred in P ittsbur gh,
Taylor has been married for 23
years and has two children. Al­though
he has been in Louisville
only a short time, he is interested
in exploring the city. "In my spare
time I go to flea markets, heritage
festivals and the like," he said . "I
am going to try and ta ke advan­tage
of all the activities in the city."
Taylor lists reading nove ls and
collecting stamps as his hobbies,
but not jogging. "It (jogging) can't
be called a hobby," he said. "It's a
requirement." He is quick to point
out, though, that he'd rather tra­vel
than do anything else. "I find it
very interesting," Taylor said. "I
enjoy visiting new places and
studying the different faces of
America.'~
Now that he is here, Taylor
hopes to settle down and make
new friends. "1 haven't met many
of the faculty yet," he said. "But
let me say this. I have not met a
faculty person I didn't like or re-

the circulation program is in use,
?"'d for the first timt: this semester.
DataPhase's main purpose is
the tracking of patrons who ha ve
borrowed mater·ials. The major·
difference for patrons is the check
out procedure. A pen light, similar
to the pricing devices a t grocery
stores, picks up identification
numbers and patron information
to be compiled in the system. The
circulation system a lso h as the
ability to block a pa tron from
checking out more mate ria l if he
has overdue mate rial. It can locate
and hold mate rial upon r·equest. lt
will even generate the estimated
900 overdue notices expected to
be issued this fall.
Last spring The Cardinal re­ported
that 2,000 to 8,000 books
from the Ekstrom Library could
not be accounted for by the librat·y
administration. Bowman. who
has been the librarian for one­and-
a-ha lf years, was quoted as
saying that a t least three to five
percent of thost: are chronically
overdue. Her reply to recent con­cerning
statistics and unac­counted-
for books reflect a similar
situation.
"Technically, the books which
are not accounted for are those
which have been stolen, and we
have no statistics on how many
there are," said Bowman.
-~
Bowman cited the faculty as the
outstanding offenders in the
March article. As a result, library
officials waited to consult the fac­ulty
before changing any overdue
policy.
"The Faculty Senate Commit­lee
on Libraries suggested that a
survey of the faculty be conducted
with regard to implementing the
circulation blocks. Because many
faculty a re not on campus during
the summer, the survey will be
conducted this fall," Bowman
said .
Overdue books are not a prob­lem
exclusive to U of L and ·the
Ekstrom Library. Nearby Jeffer­son
Community College (JCCl
suffe rs the same ailment. The loan
period for stude nts at JCC is three
weeks. And for Faculty? "Like ev­e
rywhe re else, until you get it
back," said Joyce Moore,. JCC
Head Librarian.
The JCC library, like Ekstrom,
does not ch arge fines. "A student
has a book almost three weeks to a
month before they have to bring it
back. After three weeks we sent
the first notice," said Moore. The
second costs the patron a dollar,
the third cost five. This is to cover
the cost of postage and processing
the notices.
"There have been studies made

showing that fines don't bring
books back. The studen ts can't re­gister
with out returning books.
We have threatened the facu lty
with holding their paychecks for
those who have borrowed for an
extended time, like two years.
That worked almost immediately.
We only had to do that to three
people. The Administration
s upports us in telling the faculty
to bring back books. The student
is as important as the faculty," said
Moore.
The JCC library and Ekstrom
have much more in common than
circulation problems. They s hare,
a long with thousands of other lib­raries,
a cataloging system.
Ekstrom has four terminals and a
leased phone line on line lo OCLC,
a computer company based in Col­umbus,
Ohio. This provides
Ekstrom and other libraries ac­cess
to complete bibliographies of
over 11 million books, manu­scripts,
and journa ls.
When a title is added to the li­brary,
its bibliographic informa­tion
is found in the system through
a detailed search program. With
proper computer input, orders for
the library Author, Title and Sub­ject
cards, filed in a lphabetical
order are mailed from the Ohio
